and essentially it's calling on israel to join the non proliferation nuclear treaty not as all get it off all countries who do have nuclear arms but who are not recognized by the nonproliferation proliferation treaty these resolutions of the united nations are not legally binding but they are important because they reflect world opinion and they certainly carry political weight so this is something that will make tel aviv sit up and take notice what we've witnessed ever since the palestinians went to the united nations last week and will recognized with increased status is a strong reaction from the israeli government the israeli prime minister netanyahu and nonce that he was approving some three thousand new sic the wholeness essentially in an area known as the one which is in these two men the west bank and it does mean that these two areas will be cut off from each other the international criticism came harsh and came quickly we're not hearing that australia is the latest country to summon its ambassador to talk to him over this latest israeli

border kroeber this is not what needs to be done in russia as you russian president vladimir putin visits it is some bolt on monday where he set doubts if peace is what ones what needs to be achieved in the region then putting war arms on the syrian turkish border is going to do exactly the opposite is going to escalate the conflict and this is the wrong way to go so does not support this decision however . secretary general rasmussen has said that nato foreign ministers today and try to convince russia once again that it's their right to protect turkey if russia still is not convinced if this is indeed the case and the patriot missiles will be deployed chances are i'd say the u.s. germany and the london though that netherlands of story other countries that are

going to supply turkey with those missiles however for the netherlands and germany it might need. a parliamentary approval to do so however so that's going to take more time and negotiations. but that was not the only topic on the agenda today during the russian navy. council meeting also corporation in afghanistan was discussed as well as joint war games thanks very much indeed for that live from brussels well in syria state media reports that a rebel mortar attack on a school in the damascus suburbs has killed twenty nine students and a teacher is the latest incident of collateral damage in the conflict that has allegedly claimed hundreds of lives in the past few days alone the syrian government maintains its fighting terrorists and control from. the painstaking search for peace in colombia says the latest round of talks between the government and fog rebels begin on wednesday because the deadliest military

we have to open the arms because the colombian state and the united states imperialism have a blight compelled us to do so that's a that's one very important thing to keep in mind. we as an armed organization have always. wanted dialo we have always wanted peace we have always asked for peace the prospects for success during the negotiations in her honor mediated by cuba and norway a fragile these saturday the colombian army launched a bombing offensive killing twenty rebels this by fired a unilateral cease fire and then it told me that with people being killed for their views it's unfair to blame them for a while to people who were in colombia want to fight for ideas different than the neo liberal ideas are killed so how is it possible to participate in politics if people who have other ideas are killed and that's the reason of the

armed struggle in colombia that's the reason why we are still fighting donna told me fark is not sponsored by the other religion american countries they spied such claims from the west and also commented on scandal cost to enter diary was founded by the colombian army and was made public gets the full interview here on our t.v. it's coming your way on wednesday. in most coastal to come this hour a german tree because angela merkel will just have campaign yet another term as german chancellor look at what her reelection would mean for the single currency. plus the growing splits in us society with an online pro separatism news was attracting more than a million and it was a report on that right after the break. wage

issues do just what their name implies they get between people and drive them apart like a wage and these issues seem to always take the forefront in the media it's things like abortion gun rights marijuana legalization and the weather well the weather isn't really a wedge issue but people sure talk about it way too much there's only so much room in the national discourse and the switch issues just eat up all of the time and attention but the thing is that there's a little something called the tenth amendment you know the one that says that any powers that are specifically delegated the federal government are reserved for the states and last time i checked the constitution doesn't have a special weed clause saying that marijuana has to be an all or nothing a national proposal and that goes for abortion and most other way to shoes also there's a simple answer all these wedge issues just left the states make up their own minds but then again without wages shoes what would the mainstream media have to distract us with but that's just my opinion.

he continues here on r.t. angela merkel has been reelected head of germany's christian democratic union with a record of ninety seven point nine percent approval she's now hoping to win a third term as chancellor next year general elections german politician stefan develop told my colleague the bangle say he believes germany doesn't have any real alternative to the. in crisis time its people always flock around the strong leader. there is neither in the union in the christian democratic union challenger nor is there anybody from the opposition so far who is a strong enough personality to really challenge her so markel is trying to tie the e.u. to a fiscal union if michael is really led to for a third term how much will her european economic policy change i mean will it

become more aggressive she seems to have a lot of weight since she is the most popular person at the moment. yeah it will not become more aggressive but it will be felt more strongly because this fiscal union which is imposed from central bureaucratic brussels will force. the people to accept things that they otherwise wouldn't accept so it will become and so governments and parliaments will lose its sovereign budget rights and that is unbelievable for a confederation of states as europe it is so if she is reelected will she be seeking to firmly establish germany as the center of the euro politically as well as economically no i don't think so i think she will still seek the support of all other european partner countries however the central forces of brussels will become stronger and that is generally

a bad. development it would be much better the sovereign states the confederation which have its proper parliaments to decide upon these things instead of somebody in the central in brussels. india has announced is ready to deploy its navy in the south china sea to protect its oil interests the concerns were caused by accusations from viet nam that china is interfering with shipping and oil exploration in the area with beijing building up its military the sea is at the center of a five nation scramble for influence and control india does not lay any territorial claims but its national interests are tied to the seas vast natural resources professor of international affairs three charlie says delis gripping its national interests. was truly what you know all of these do you see in your interests are not confined by geography it's quite globe and so china sea off the coast of

overhaul within the pentagon's defense intelligence agency which is expected to rival the cia scott horton contributing editor at harper's magazine believes the u.s. is admitting its neglected the old fashioned tradecraft of gathering intelligence. this planning change actually can be rather is is an admission of sorts and that is that the intelligence that's been collected by this massive apparatus has been very very weak particularly in the critical north east. middle east and. and the north africa region and also in pakistan the intelligence community did not see the arab spring coming. in the tori as mrs smith's about the situations in countries like egypt and syria for instance and i think in part this results from a heavy focus by the intelligence community overall or on what's called signal

signals intelligence that is these very very sophisticated intercept systems to the detriment of the traditional human intelligence and i think that what we see in washington is a general acceptance of the fact that you can't do that the system is out of balance that they have to have much better human intelligence gathered on the ground to be able to interpret what they've gotten from signals and this is an effort to to address that problem but it also means continuously but wounding budget for intelligence. american police make another controversial step to keep. all personal text messages that's a new proposition submitted to congress group of more than for professionals the experts have to say about that on our website dot com. with benefits a website offering university tuition is exposed in the u.k. get the details online. suggest
